Irresistible Comfort: Discover the Perfect Pizza Pot Pie Recipe

Learn how to make delicious Perfect Pizza Pot Pie Recipe. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Here’s what you’ll need to create your very own pizza pot pie:

  • 2 cups cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni
  • 1/2 cup bell peppers, diced (any color)
  • 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/4 cup black olives, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 package refrigerated pie crust (or homemade if you’re feeling adventurous)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for crust wash)

If you find yourself short on ingredients, don’t worry—this recipe is as flexible as a yoga instructor. Swap the chicken for turkey or even tofu if you’re going meatless, and use whatever veggies are hanging out in your fridge. The key is to use what you have and make it work for your family.

Instructions

Ready to dive into the creation process? Follow these steps:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, bell peppers, mushrooms, black olives, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Stir until the ingredients are well combined and everything is coated in the sauce.
  4. Roll out your pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish, allowing the excess to hang over the edges.
  5. Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture into the pie crust evenly.
  6. Cover the filling with the top crust, crimping the edges to seal. Cut a few small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
  7. Brush the top of the crust with the beaten egg to give it a golden, glossy finish.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  9. Allow the pot pie to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This gives it a chance to set up a bit, making it easier to slice.

A little patience goes a long way here. I know it’s tempting to dive right in, but those few minutes of cooling make all the difference.
